Rovers and City have only played at home once on the same day since December 2014. That came in January this year as Rovers took on Northampton Town in a league match and City faced Fleetwood Town in the FA Cup third round.

Of course, the fixture list is subject to change due to TV matches and cup commitments.

But as it stands Rovers and City are both due to be at home on those three dates. The first two clashes occur on 3pm Saturday kick-offs, with the November 21 clash taking place at 7.45pm on a Tuesday night.
